And What if I Fail?نموونە
Is everything too late now?
Do you know that God wants you to start the day happy? Do you know that it pleases Him to see you happy? "Why is that?" you may ask. Actually, it's quite simple.
Maybe you have children of your own. Are you happier when they sit at the breakfast table and say, "I'm feeling down today. I can't go to school or work like this," or when you hear them laugh, "Ah, I'm looking forward to this day!"
The answer to that is clear, isn't it? In the same way, God is pleased when you start your day full of confidence and live your purpose on earth full of joy!
However, there are one or two reasons why sometimes that doesn't work. One of them is: "Your own failure." This sin weighs heavy on your heart. Heavy on your mind. Everything inside of you is screaming, "It's too late, I've failed too many times." This heaviness prevents you from living your mission.
What God points out to you about yourself in or through your failure often hurts. But it would hurt much more not to work on it and continue to live your life with that heavy heart, without the freedom to pursue your mission. It would hurt you and it would hurt your Father who wants a happy child.
What hurts you, hurts God. Because God is full of love for you, He wants to remind you how to get a light heart again and return to your destiny:
“Therefore this is what the LORD says: “If you repent, I will restore you that you may serve me; if you utter worthy, not worthless, words, [if you do not speak lightly!] you will be my spokesman….” (Jeremiah 15:19 NIV)
"If you do not speak lightly...!" A phrase that needs your full attention. For God doesn't want you to say lightly, "It's too late, I've failed too many times." He wants you to say, "Jesus, please forgive me. I need you. Amen."
You are a miracle!
